I went swimming this morning, but otherwise have stayed in today. I started making some hoop storage bags for the church summer fete yesterday evening and finished them off today. I messed up the trims to start with as I couldn't find the glue gun and used super glue which stained the trim! Then found the glue gun, so ripped it all off and did it again, luckily I had enough extra trim.
Then I finished off threading ribbons through the ceramic decorations. Tina and I both painted some of the decorations before they were fired and the plan is that I will write names on tomorrow in Sharpie pen. The pens do not rub off but they are not permanent and will wash off.
We picked up one twig at The Mere yesterday and I found another small one this morning to hand the decorations on. Then I made a couple of signs so I think we are about good to go.
I am watch Andy Murray, who is it seems, about to go out of this years Wimbledon. Hasnpt played badly, Federer has just been unstoppable!

  1. Your articles look lovely and should sell well, a good idea to hang them on a twig, sets them off. They are different so others won't have them. Well done.
    Will watch the ladies tennis today, hot already here.mxx

    1. Sold about half but not the storage bags, they will make presents though! Weather stayed fine but the wind spoilt it a bit. x
